5 stars just for the citrus victoria sponge! Made by the lovely ladies that work there -sandwiches are great but cake is even better!!

I bought a jacket potato and egg mayo filling. When I got home there was chicken AND tuna mayo mixed in with the egg. I have to be careful of food contamination. They also used fingers to grab cheese to put on the potato. That's not really acceptable even outside Covid. I would have asked for a replacement but I didn't see that until my relative told me once we'd walked away. Has to chuck the meal because I could not risk the food. Very disappointed. I won't be going back.

A fantastic place for getting a sandwich, salad, etc. They stock local goods and the food in fantastic. Also, the brownies are actually some of the best brownies I've ever eaten.

Had a little trip on the ripon canal ‘cruise’ this morning and when we arrived back it was time for a bite to eat and we spotted ‘The Forge’ Gorgeous sandwiches , loads of lovely fresh fillings at a very reasonable price. It’s primarily a takeaway but there are a few tables outside , unfortunately they were all taken so we walked back towards town and found a lovely shady bench by the river and had a picnic. We’ll definitely call in here again, delicious.
